A procedure used to validate a 3-D mesh adaptation scheme based on adjoint-based error estimation with application to sonic boom propagation is described. The method is based on a cost function formulation that integrates the near-field pressure differential over a prescribed surface. The uncertainty in the computation of this cost function is used to drive automatic h-r mesh adaptation such that errors in the functional are reduced without human intervention. The primary configurations used to validate the technique are a family of simple cone-cylinder geometries for which experimental data is available. Computed results for inviscid flow at Mach numbers of 1.26 and 1.41 are presented at various distances in the near-field up to 20 body lengths. These results are compared against the available test data and show good agreement.
